  • Financial Infidelity

    THE HIDDEN LEDGER Secrets, Debt, and the Price of Silence

    Most people think cheating involves a hotel room and a second phone. In reality, it often starts with a secret credit card, a hidden bank account, or a "small" lie about the price of a new purchase. The Hidden Ledger strips away the shame to examine why we lie about money and how those secrets dismantle our most intimate relationships.

    We provide a raw, unfiltered look at the cost of financial betrayal. This podcast explores the psychology of money hoarding, the fallout of secret gambling, and the long road to rebuilding trust when the damage is measured in dollars. Whether you are the one hiding the receipts or the one discovering the debt, we offer direct conversations and practical strategies to stop the bleeding and find a way back to transparency.

  • Why Do You Want to Marry Me?

    This question needs to be asked before marriage so that you both have a clear understanding on why you both want to be with each other. This should give you and your partner clear knowledge on the real reason, and it may not be why you think.

  • Sex

    This weeks episode we discuss the popular subject of sex. This isn't the conversation about what you want to do to one another, but what should be talked about beforehand; the uncomfortable stuff. The stuff we avoid because of our pride or because its so taboo to talk about. This week I'm venturing into new territory with the inclusion of the Clubhouse app. This gives me a live audience and numerous guests; making my podcast more interactive than most. Hope you enjoy the changes and one day join in on my Clubhouse room, PreMarriage_101.

  • The Change Over

    I'm taking this podcast into a new direction. The cover art will be changed soon to better represent the theme of the show. Sorry to my listeners who expected me to stay on route with the premarriage talks. With covid19 changing the dynamics of our lives, I took it upon myself to focus on some personal change and time management. I usually juggle a few things at a time. Now, I'm focusing on my book and dont have as much time to write the scripts for the premarriage show. So I'm changing the show to represent me better and what I am doing. It will be called "The After Hour" and it will be of a more provocative nature. so, fore warning, it will not be safe for work or appropriate for children. Hope you all stick around for this journey.

  • Necessary Space
    Are you the type to want to be up under your spouse? Are you the type that needs ample room? When you’re in you emotions, do you need ppl around for support or do you want to be alone? When angry/sad, do you want to approach the situation head on or do you need some time alone to cool off/gather your thoughts? Just on a daily basis, do you like to be alone for some time? Do you need that alone time periodically?
    In all these scenario, you or they may need some or a lot of space. Some ppl don’t require any space. And, there are those who require someone to be there. Do you know enough about yourself to answer these? Can you handle someone who is the opposite? Can you come to a medium, find a middle ground that benefits both of you? Or, are your needs non negotiable, there’s no way around them, you need some one there or that space?
    This is very important because there are time we need to recharge or heal. Everyone’s process is different. Some need someone there to help pick up the pieces or comfort them to heal. Some ppl need that alone time. If you aren’t given this, you can’t be mentally healthy. And this will destroy a relationship.

  • Chores & Responsibilities
    We have two options here. The first one is easy. We have certain things that men and women did from a role specific society. Men took care of the finances and those "manly" chores around the house. Women took care of everything else including all domestic chores and caring for the children. the second option is based on the "new" rules that have blurred the lines between gender roles. So today's questions are, depending are which you follow, what would you do and what do you refuse to do? What chores will you share? And, what is up in the air depending on who's around when it needs to be done?

  • Co-parenting and Discipline
    A lot of us come into relationships with children. Some of them live with us, some don't. All our circumstances are different concerning this. Some of us have great co-parent, some have none. But, some of us have the co-parent from hell! Saying this, we have different relationship with the other parent and understandings when it comes to new partners entering our lives. So, my question is, and I know it will vary considerably...
    How do we approach discipline between your partner, your child, and your co-parent?
